    Default Congratulations to Anish

    Heather Anderson, Anish, completed her second Triple Crown hike on September 29, 2017. She finished the CDT at the New Mexico - Mexico border.
    Well done Heather!

    Seems to be a growing number of double TCers we're hearing about. IMHO most don't make a big deal of it themselves. These folks like being out there. It's where they want to be as Heather has repeatedly shared. Nice IMO to occasionally hear about vastly different route experiences and directions of travel when it comes to TCs rather than how fast or how many times these hikes are completed. Francis Tapon's accounts of the first ever CDT yo yo detailed some of this. Congrats to Heather. Has she made public a trail journal yet of her second CDT?

    She's been posting regularly on Instagram. I was very loosely following along. Apparently she was picked up just 25 miles from the border by Border Patrol because her campsite was in the direct path of an oncoming tornado.
    Colorless green ideas sleep furiously.

    Who are you thinking is the other? I know of three female double TCers. They don't all make it public though.

    Find anishhikes on Instagram. Read what she said. Heather credits Jackie McDonnell as #1.
    I know nothing. You've been everywhere. Know everything.
    Cheers!

    Agreed. I'm envious. I'll never catch up. Getting out and about when I can.

    No need to compare ourselves or be envious. I've certainly enjoyed my experiences as I suspect you did and still are.

    No one knows it all or has done it all. There's always someone else who knows more and has done more. That's why we should even though we may be confident we should be humble enough to observe and heed others as it applies to us. That in a nutshell is the real reason why I'm on internet forums.
